Regular Member joshelstad Posted August 17, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 I'm getting a HT this winter. I have decided on getting an FUT because I want a lot of grafts and nice density to restore my hairline. Any recommendations on surgeons, (or any shared experiences), regarding FUT donor scars? I REALLY want my scar to be minimal, who out there does the best FUT scars? THANKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member corvettester Posted August 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 I really like Dr. Dorin's scars as they are so fine and pencil thin. However, most docs should be able to produce the same thing. My scar was pretty much impossible to find without the help of my hair stylist and good lighting. It was 1mm in width except for a small area on the right hand side that stretched a little to perhaps 2.5mm. In my send HT, Dr. Dorin went back over and revised that small area that had stretched. It should all be 1mmm from here on out. You can see photos of my scar in my hair loss website under the 8 month mark, see link below. Just make sure you take really good care of it post-op and apply the Mupironcin twice daily after cleaning and don't let blood crusts remain long as they will prevent the scar from closing properly, thereby making it wider.

Senior Member orlhair1 Posted August 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 You have been given good advice........I had so much anxiety over the scar issue before I had my surgery, but felt much better about it as I spoke to my Dr. and his staff about it. Now that I had it done I am realize that the amount of anxiety over it was greater than it needed to be, but certainly natural. In the hands of a skilled surgeon most people will have a great scar outcome.

Senior Member HARIRI Posted August 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 When it comes to scars, I guess Dr. Hasson is very talented in this specific part in a HT. Dr. Bisanga is awesome as well. Also Dr. Rahal creates good ones, In my case he couldnt do that much cause I came to him with a 1cm wide scar :-D Plug removal + Strip scar revision - Dr. Ali Karadeniz (AEK)- May 23, 2015 Plug removal + 250 FUE temple points- Dr. Hakan Doganay (AHD)- July 3, 2013 Scar Tricopigmentation- Dr. Koray Erdogan (ASMED)- May 3, 2013 2500 FUT (Hairline Repair)- Dr. Rahal- July 26, 2011 My Hair Treatments: 1- Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo (Daily) 2- Regaine Solution Minoxidil 5% (2 ml once a day) 3- GNC Ultra NourishHair™ (Once a day) 4- GNC Herbal Plus Standardized Saw Palmetto (Once a day) My Rahal HT thread http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/164456-2500-fut-dr-rahal-hairline-repair.html[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member RCWest Posted August 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2011 A lot depends on wound tension and physiology, but any doctor on here can give you a near impossible scar to find. Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?
